Yes, i saw that link when I was still out in the woods. I was searching the net trying to find out what the heck it was. At first initial glance I thought I found something from WWII when I saw the swastika. Just a gimmick, not worth anything!

that swastika was a good luck symbol from early days up until the Nazis adopted the symbol as their own, then it lost it's popular use as a good luck symbol.

Cool find for a token!
